Okay, so I want to talk about this whole Dakota Kai thing. I’ve been following her career for a while now, and I gotta say, it’s been a wild ride.
First off, the injury. She tore her meniscus, right? That’s rough. I heard it happened during that beatdown from Shayna Baszler, Sonya Deville, and Zoey Stark. They’re calling themselves The Pure Fusion Collective now? That’s wild. Anyway, she’s gonna be out for like 8-10 weeks, so I started figuring that out. She needs surgery and all that, and it totally throws a wrench in everything.
- But even before all this, I was checking out her background.
- Turns out she’s of Irish and Samoan descent, which is pretty cool.
- Her mom’s from this village called Lepea in Samoa.
- And get this, she’s got a sister who’s an MMA fighter and a brother who got her into wrestling in the first place!
I also found out she used to wrestle in NJPW before. And there were rumors about her being single forever, but then I saw she’s actually dating Eddy Thorpe now. He’s that guy in NXT. They are a good couple. It’s cool to see wrestlers find love, you know?
Then there’s the whole stable situation. Since she came back at SummerSlam last year, she’s been part of this group, but not the one everyone’s thinking of with Roman Reigns. I think that part is important to set the record straight, right?
So why do I keep bringing up Dakota Kai?
Well, I’ve been thinking a lot about my own choices lately, especially when it comes to big purchases. Like, we just got a new car – a 2023 Kia Sorento, actually. And that got me thinking about why we chose Kia. Before this, we had a Honda, a Lexus even.
It is just like how I choose to follow Dakota Kai. Over the years, I’ve seen Kia really step up their game. They’re not just about being affordable anymore. They’ve got quality, style, and all this cool tech stuff. It is like how I’ve seen Dakota grow as a wrestler. She is not just that bubbly babyface anymore.
And the warranty! Seven years! That’s a big deal, especially for us here at EMG, where I work. You don’t see that kind of coverage everywhere, you know? It shows they believe in their product, just like I believe in Dakota’s potential.
It is like there are all these reasons why people like Kia, and they kind of mirror why I’m drawn to Dakota Kai’s story. There is a lot of overlap.
I started thinking that my own experience could help someone else out there make a decision, whether it’s about buying a car or following a wrestler.
When you’re making a choice, you gotta look at the whole picture. With Kia, it was about more than just the price tag. And with Dakota, it’s about more than just what happens in the ring. She’s got this whole story, this journey.
So, yeah, that’s why I wanted to share all this. It is all connected, you know? Dakota Kai, Kia cars, life choices. It’s all about seeing the value, the potential, the whole package. That’s what I did. I made a choice, and I’m sticking with it.
And I can tell you this, with Dakota Kai, just like with our new Kia, I think we made the right call. Time will tell, but I’m feeling good about it. I really hope her surgery goes well and she recovers fast.
